Service Accounts
Service Accounts are a secure and powerful way to connect your apps to Box Platform. This is a type of Box account that represents a custom application within an enterprise instance of Box and
allows that application to make server-side calls to the Box APIs. You can define the capabilities of each individual Service Account dynamically, setting permissions such as uploading and managing content, managing users and groups, accessing events, or using premium features like Box Governance to set retention policies or apply a legal hold.
